I wouldn’t, it has alcohol in it. Just get him to brush his teeth and his tongue. Undesirable breath frequently comes from the stomach anyway.

Solution by Lis
He can use only if he knows how to swish it about and spit it back out with out swallowing it. The might well have a sore throat because when my youngsters get sore throats they get bad breath.

Solution by Rebecca
He can use it as long as he doesn’t swallow. I utilised it as a kid. Does he have a cold or is he breathing through is mouth and not his nose? That might possibly be a cause. His throat could be drying out and bacteria is obtaining smelly.
